Water-splashing festival originated in Persia in the 5th century A.D. and was named "Po Han Hu Opera" at that time.
泼水节最早起源于公元5世纪的波斯，当时命名为泼寒胡戏。
Following that, Shaohan opera was introduced from Persia through India to Myanmar, Thailand and Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, China.
在此之后泼寒胡戏由波斯经印度传入缅甸、泰国和中国云南西双版纳等地。
From the end of the 12th century to the beginning of the 13th century, it was introduced into the Dai area of Yunnan Province of China through Burma with Buddhism.
约在公元十二世纪末至十三世纪初经缅甸随佛教传入中国云南傣族地区。
